Is that a two wheeled bicycle in the background, behind the lady? I did not think bicycles of that type were that old…
no thats not a bicycle, it’s two wagon wheels.
My guess, from having rolled a few in my boyhood play, is that they were the iron rims = today’s tires for the wagon wheel. Note the absence of spokes.
